From 8 Google reviews · Home Done analysis of Google Places data and public records
What reviews keep mentioning
Deklan arrives on time and communicates clearly
2×

Every review names Deklan, which tells you exactly who will show up at your door. The jobs mentioned are the smaller everyday ones: downlights, exhaust fan replacement, switchboard upgrade. Two things come up enough to note. He turns up when he says he will, and he cleans up after himself. Only 8 reviews to go on, but the praise is detailed and name-specific.

Best for: small to medium residential jobs like downlight installs, switchboard and mains upgrades, and urgent single-fixture fixes.

About Active8 Electrics

Deklan runs this as a one-man show, and reviews keep naming him, not a crew. The work covers the everyday jobs that make a home comfortable, not big commercial fit-outs. Downlight installs come up more than once, with one reviewer noting zero mess left behind. He replaced an exhaust fan-light before New Year's Eve visitors arrived, which shows he can fit in small urgent jobs. Switchboard and mains upgrades are part of his range too. Customers say he explains things in plain words and turns up when he promises. Cleanup gets specifically praised, which matters when you are paying someone to work inside your living spaces.

Best for: small to medium residential jobs like downlight installs, switchboard and mains upgrades, and urgent single-fixture fixes.

Common questions about Active8 Electrics

Who will do the work if I book Active8 Electrics?+

The reviews suggest it is Deklan himself every time. Every customer names him, and there is no mention of a crew or other technicians. That points to a one-man operation, so you know who to expect on site.

What kind of electrical jobs does Active8 Electrics take on?+

Customers mention downlight and spotlight installs, switchboard and mains upgrades, and an exhaust fan-light replacement. It looks like small to medium residential jobs rather than large commercial or new-build work.

Does Deklan clean up after the job?+

Yes, and it is called out specifically. One customer wrote he never leaves a mess. Another noted he cleaned up after an exhaust fan replacement, so you can count on a tidy worksite.

Is Active8 Electrics priced competitively?+

Only one review mentions pricing directly, saying a switchboard and mains upgrade was very competitively priced. Another customer said he was value for money, but with so few reviews you should still get a quote to compare.
